On the Box it said "mobile phone stand" there is no brand name as it was got
in one of those shops that get stuff in from china and there never seen
again. I would have given the brand name, its date of birth and what ever
other information would have identified the product. But alas all I have is
"mobile phone stand". Typing into the likes of amazon "mobile phone stand"
will get results, it was due to amazon I knew what to ask for in the shop
that gets stuff in thats never seen again.

Well there isn't one as such but try shift and the number 3 and you
have the pound sign, same thing.
I wonder if Jackie could kindly let us know the name of her new stand
and where she bought it as I've been looking for exactly that for a
while now.
Good minutes.
Thanks,

Conclusion
Pre meeting discussions.
The meeting began with a number of eager participants lining up outside
the door waiting for the teacher to open it. Ken was not feeling the
best today we wish him all the best and a fast recovery. The early
participants discussed the weather. It was quite different in various
parts of the country. Jackie said she was out last night the note taker
thought she was out in the nightclubs. Cearbhall told the group about an
interview that he watched were a Russian adviser to America discussed
Putin. The recent podcast that was put up on the FB list was discussed
many people found it funny. It was for sightless cinema. This went on
for a while while we waited for more people to join the meeting.
Discussion on how fast the year is going came up. The new apple voices
that are going to be introduced in IOS sixteen were also briefly
discussed. Eloquence was anticipated. The history of iPhone voices came
up Alex was said to have been badly transferred to the iPhone from the
mac. The Walto
ss
t
v
show came up as well. It turns out that Jackie went to a show in the
Sligo hawk swell theatre called the 3 Mary’s. she found it to be
fantastic. She described in detail the lovely burger she ate during the
show it sounded delicious. She gave a description of the play. So, the
note taker guesses he was wrong in this instance.
focus group for RTE
ken posted up a focus group for rte. on the FB list recently. Ken said
that all details of it are in the e-mail. Ken was surprised that he
received it. Ken described how he sends e-mails with links to the list.
Discussion of how the list can sometime bring up hidden characters if
you delete characters was highlighted.
New laptop.
Ken described his new dell laptop he is extremely excited to get it. He
said he should have it by next week. It is a bran new laptop. Ken said
he will try NVDA for a while. Cearbhall gave the group a description of
the differences between JAWS and NVDA. Jackie also gave her opinion of
it.
New phone.
Paul described his wife’s new phone. She went for the Samsung galaxy.
She is really enjoying it. She was able to transfer her details over no
problem from her Huawei phone. Discussion of this Chinese brand of phone
commenced for a period.
Quick assist.
Jackie informed the group that the quick assist function of laptops does
not work with JAWS. According to Jackie this is because it will no
longer be a part of windows eleven. She commenced to do a lot of
investigation of this issue. She contacted a number of groups that help
people with accessibility issues around Ireland. It no longer works with
any screen reader according to them. Quick assist is the function
wherein someone can remotely access your laptop to aid you. This issue
has appeared in the latest update. Cearbhall said he will contact be my
eyes to have a look at this issue. This will affect a sizeable number of
service users according to someone Jackie contacted about the issue.
Windows key and F allows you to send a fault report to Microsoft. She
was told to put in hash tag accessibility to get their accessibility
department. The group tried to find the hashtag key for a while as no
one knew where it was on a keyboard. Many options were tried but the
note taker wa
su
n
ab
le to find it on his laptop. One of the participants swore quite
vulgarly. Chris also discussed his holiday to turkey at this point he
sounded like he had a remarkably interesting time.
Covid.
A number of participants discussed their history with covid. The
symptoms were discussed as well as the lack of masks available for sale.
One of the participants said they were a close contact. Chris mentioned
that quite a number of people on his plane back from turkey were not
wearing masks. This discussion went on for a while. Discussion of
priority boarding was a topic discussed as Chris was offered it on his
way back from turkey, he was also offered a wheelchair, he did not need
one.
The hashtag issue reared its head again for a while with participants
trying to figure out what its purpose is. It was compared to drugs
because of the name.
Voice control/iPhone
One of the participants asked what the purpose of voice control was. It
is a way of controlling your phone by giving it voice commands. The note
taker used it to take a picture of themselves in the past. Jackie
described her fantastic stand she bought to hold her iPhone. She
compared it to a microphone stand. She uses it for teams and zoom and
for voice dream scanner it has improved the quality of the scanner. It
cost her eighteen euro. The issue of hashtag raised itself from the deep
briefly like a dolphin jumping out of the water before going under again
briefly. It is called number on a keyboard with JAWS. Paul pressed all
the keys on his keyboard but could not find it. Cearbhall found it on
his keyboard. Jackie’s dog Sasha joined briefly in the meeting to
contribute to the discussion of hashtag keys. This was a persistent
issue throughout the meeting as you can easily infer.
Zoom/Teams meetings
Cearbhall said he worked on zoom during the week. His goal was to set up
a meeting during the week, but he faced difficulty. A number of
participants were able to do it. To do it enter the schedule option on
the home menu and follow the instructions from that point. Different
methods were discussed. Participants had a few diverse ways of doing it.
Teams was brought up it is extremely easy to do it on outlook. Jackie
gave us her method. You enter the calendar. This created significant
discussion during the tech club. Whoever created the meeting is the host
and can open a meeting.
Ken mentioned that he did teams screenshare for the first time in teams.
He found it to be interesting. He got a small bit of help from Jackie in
practicing for doing it. Ken found it to be very fiddly but, in the end,
he found it worked very well for him. Hashtag came back here to briefly.
Screen sharing is different on an iPad in comparison to an iPad you need
to go to more calling options to find it on an iPhone. Share on an iPad.
Trying to figure out how to do it on the laptop came up control and e is
the key command to do it. ken wondered if you could share audio books
through share screen, Jackie said you could not do this. Stuart
suggested finding audio books on you tube to get it to work, Jackie said
drop box might work we left ken to figure this out. Comparisons of teams
and zoom as platforms commenced for a while. You can do a lot more as a
participant to control a teams meeting as opposed to zoom where the host
has more strict controls over a meeting.
Zoom screen sharing.
Martha suggested downloading a sample of an audiobook to your desktop as
a way of screensharing on teams. Jackie did not think this would work as
it is streamed not downloaded. Ken attempted to share an audiobook to
see if it would work during the meeting It surprisingly did work to the
shock of all participants. Ken entered zoom, turned on video, share
content, screen, start broadcast and microphone is on. Press home then
selected his book. This was zoom however, Jackie said she would
evaluate this with ken on teams to determine is similar results appeared
at a later point. Discussion of audiobooks went on for a while after
this. A number of participants said they do not like listening to eBooks
on iPhone. They did not like the voices. Jackie said she is planning to
update her phone to try out the new features coming in IOS 16. The lidar
functions that will allow us to detect doors through the camera
interested her. Only the twelve pro and up will have these features.
Jackie
hs

ed
her favourite voice dream voice Graham, she did this through screen
share. Graham was sleepy but eventually woke up and wowed the audience
with his fantastic vocals. She got him to read the windows jaws guide
Cearbhall sent a number of months ago. Jackie said she shared her screen
the same way ken did to share his audiobook previously. For some strange
reason voice over does not come through with screen share on zoom. Ken
decided to assess if a sample of an audiobook from a website would share
as well as a full book. Ken swore quite vulgarly for some strange
inexplicable reason he continued engaging in this behaviour for a few
minutes. Then he started humming to himself and the audience for some
reason. He faced quite a number of difficulties; however, he eventually
was successful. If you are not focused on the zoom call it was
discovered that you could not here the audio.
Revolute/ text frauds
Ken said he got a revolute message yesterday that said his account was
locked. It was fake be careful of these messages. Martha said she is a
major fan of revolute as she can transfer money easily. She got two
buttons saying request and send. Request means that you ask for money
from someone while send means that you will send them money. Do not add
an extra zero by accident. It was advised that you double check that
your money has gone through Jackie offered to help all you have to do is
send her ten euro. Discussion of other fraudulent messages continued.
Jackie mentioned a Post having one wherein you are told a package has
arrived and you can be charged two euro. Jackie checked in the post
office and was reassured that it was fake. Other participants provided
their experiences with fraud text messages and e-mails. Stuart said he
nearly got caught with the caburies fraud around easter. The note taker
advises that everyone be incredibly careful with these messages.
